Jannik Sinner, Adriano Panatta reveal backstory on forced hiatus

How will Jannik Sinner return after the forced hiatus of three months due to the Clostebol case? The words of Adriano Panatta reassure fans about the condition of the Blue, who is training incognito ahead of his return to official court sessions (April 13): “From what I know he is making the most of the break”.

According to Panatta, who spoke on the sidelines of the ’event “A Champion for a Friend”, Sinner will arrive “ready to play on clay because he will have a chance to train extensively. A break now and then is good for him”, are the words reported by Corriere dello Sport.

“I am very optimistic, three months is not a long time. More would have been a problem, he used this period to train in a certain way, improving his game and physique”, Panatta further explained.

“He had nothing to do with the disqualification, he did well to settle because with the WADA you never know where you are going to end up. He is a very smart and mature guy, an example to all sports for his behavior. Maybe he is even too perfect. Will he win in Rome? Sooner rather than later he will”.
